I couldn't agree with you more !!! Its actually scarry sometimes to watch what happens when lies and exagerations keep being repeated by the media and then are swallowed hook line and sinker. The most mindbending to me is the Christian Right who seem to be the most easily missiled by the media and the ones who are most likely to take a harsh stand bringing about the most "unchristian" results on their fellow man. Polls were taken of the opinions amongst fundamentalist christians about the water boareding torture for instance, as I remember they were more likely by some 70+ % points to approve as apposed to the non church going public. The "believers" seem to be the most gullable when enundated by the far rights propaganda. Somehow the truth, for instance about the Health care Law needs to be trumpeted a lot louder and a lot more frequently. I think maybe its time to re-authorize the Fairness Doctrine which forced more equal time for all sides from the major media outlets. Media is a whole lot to blame for our current discord in the US Politics.
